I’ve wondered why sometimes I will look down at my leg and see a mosquito I didn’t realize was there happily sucking away while other times I’ll feel a little prick in the same area because a mosquito has just bitten me. There’s probably no single reason, but I wonder if sometimes the mosquito has to do more probing to find a blood vessel.
Also, not even remotely related, but once my dentist told me “You’re going to feel a little prick in your mouth” and I said, “You could at least take me out to dinner and a movie first.”
